IT'S LOVE
Leonard Bernstein (m) Betty Comden (l) Adolph Green (l) 1953
as rec by Lena Horne 1955
It's love, it's love,
Well who would have thought it!
If this is love,
Then why have I fought it?
What a way to feel,
I could touch the sky;
What a way to feel,
I have found my guy!
It's love at last,
I've someone to cheer for;
It's love at last,
I've learned what we're here for!
I've heard it said
You'll know it when you see it;
Well, I see it,
I know it,
It's love!
It's love, it's love,
Well who would have thought it!
If this is love,
Then why have I fought it?
What a way to feel,
I could touch the sky;
What a way to feel,
I have found my guy!
It's love at last,
I've someone to cheer for;
It's love at last,
I've learned what we're here for!
I've heard it said
You'll know it when you see it;
Well, I see it,
I know it,
I feel it,
It's love!
